Comment from the seller, an audio enthusiast:
A wonderful opportunity to acquire a classic, well-functioning, unspoiled Rotel power amplifier in excellent condition. It pairs perfectly with a streamer/preamp like a Bluesound Node, allowing you to create a serious HiFi system on a small budget!

The last photos have been attached at the request of Catawiki to demonstrate the operation of the Power LED and Bridge LED. The amplifier is connected to a Bluesound Node 2 and two (or one in Bridge Mode) Monitor Audio speakers. The auction concerns only the Rotel amplifier.

Finally, a photo is attached showing how the amplifier will be shipped. The depicted box will then be placed in a larger box filled with styrofoam to prevent damage during transport.
